HOUSTON, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Levi Jones of the Cincinnati Bengals, a 6-5, 310-pound left tackle, was arrested early Monday morning following a fight at a Houston night club.

In town for the Super Bowl, Jones reached for an officer's baton before several others were forced to restrain him, police spokesman John Cannon said. Jones had ignored instructions from police to clear the area outside the Mercury Room.
